The following terms are used throughout this manual to bring attention to the presence of hazards of various risk levels.
Basic Operation
A.
General
1. This manual covers the proper care and use of the
Alpine™ (ALP) Condensing High Efficiency Gas
Fired Boiler
2. Instructions to safely light and shut down this boiler
are shown on page 4, as well as on a label affixed to
the boiler. Control locations shown in Figure 1.
3.
The Alpine™ (ALP) boilers
use an electronic
means built into the ignition system to extinguish
the burner in the event that flames exit the
combustion chamber. If the boiler fails to fire, call
a qualified heating service agency to diagnose and
correct the problem.
4.
Alpine™ (ALP) boilers –
These boilers are
equipped with a safety feature which will shut down
the burner in the event that there is a blockage in
the vent system. In the event that the boiler fails to
function, and the boiler is vented through an outside
wall accessible from the ground, inspect the vent
terminal on the outside wall for a blockage such
as a bee’s nest or ice. If a blockage is found, the
burner should ignite approximately 30 seconds after
the blockage is removed. If no blockage is found,
or if the terminal is inaccessible from the ground,
the problem must be diagnosed and corrected by a
qualified gas service technician.
DANGER
There are no user serviceable parts on this boiler. Attempts to service this boiler by someone other than a
qualified gas service technician could void the warranty, cause property damage, personal injury or loss of
life.
CAUTION
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, do not turn off or disconnect the electrical
supply to the pump. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location external to the appliance.
En cas de surchauffe ou si I'admission de gaz ne peut étre coupée, ne pas couper ni débrancher
l'alimentation électrique de la pompe. Fermer plutôt le robinet d'admission de gaz à l'extérieur de I'appareil.
Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to
inspect the boiler and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under
water.
CAUTION
Like all central heating appliances, this boiler is equipped with safety devices, which could cause it to
shutdown, requiring service to restore normal operation. Where such a shutdown could result in damage
from low temperatures (such as frozen pipes), do not leave the heating system unattended during cold
weather unless alarms or other safeguards are in place to prevent damage.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, could result in death, serious injury
or substantial property damage.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, may result in moderate or minor
injury or property damage.
